Possible role of nicotine and cotinine on nitroxidative stress and antioxidant content in saliva of smokeless tobacco consumers

Abstract: The aim of the study is to levels of nicotine and cotinine were elevated the oxidative stress malondialdehyde (MDA) and inflammation as nitric oxide (NO2 and NO3) may possibly be associated with decreased antioxidant enzyme activities and can sensitively indicate the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). To evaluate the quantitative analysis of nicotine and cotinine levels and the alterations in the selected parameters of antioxidant metabolisms during nitroxidative stress in the saliva of smokeless tob… Show more

“…The final enzyme activity was calculated by normalizing the results to the total protein concentration of the whole protein extract. Catalase (CAT) was determined by the method and the activity of CAT is expressed as µmoles of H 2 O 2 decomposed/min/mg protein or U/mg protein [ 17 ].…”

“…There were no significant correlations found between above said all parameters in tobacco non-chewers (controls). Previous similar studies reported positive correlations in cotinine and lipid peroxide while negative correlations of cotinine and enzymatic antioxidants (Begum, S.F. et al, 2018, Augusta, N., et al, 2018.…”

“…In addition to epigenetic mechanisms, SLTrelated carcinogenesis can also be induced by promoter methylation of tumor suppressor genes, which results in abnormal cell proliferation (4,6). The use of tobacco products over a long time causes increased oxidative stress and the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) due to the reaction with biological macromolecules (5,16,21,25,26).…”
